“This study gives a rich and insightful snapshot into the lives of digitally native young people in the West Midlands, and their attitudes to culture – as they define it. Our research aims to provoke creative and cultural organisations keen to engage young people into challenging their existing programming and engagement strategies, enabling a more responsive and agile sector.”
